Hey all. Thanks for the responses! Through a "glitch" in notifications, i only became aware of them now so sorry about the silence!
Anyway I think my decisions kind of tie in with the recommendations here - I will be going first to Southern Leyte and spending a few days there before going on to Malapascua. Sadly the transfers are hectic cost-wise because I am travelling alone and so can't split the van cost with others; also I can't really afford the time to go public buses because it will mean wasted nights over nighting. But so be it.
My first dive trip in 19 months - for me thats a really long time out the water so I'm looking forward to it!
Thanks again for the input!!
